Zig Ziglar / Understand the hesitation

SALESCOACH PRACTICE
Take one open proposal and create five columns: need, budget, timing, desired outcome and trust. Add only buyer-confirmed evidence. Choose one missing answer to explore in your next conversation.

AI PROMPT
Using these anonymized buyer notes, organize confirmed evidence into need, budget, timing, desired outcome and trust. Mark missing evidence as unknown. Suggest one neutral question for each important gap. Do not infer hidden motives, dismiss a budget limit, or invent urgency. Finish with one possible next-step question for human review.

WHAT TO REVIEW
Review whether the important questions were answered and whether the buyer agreed to the next step. Keep declined and no-decision outcomes visible when calculating your win rate.
